How to get 5 or 8 LED outputs on a DIG-QUAD (Part 2 - running ESPixelStick firmware)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 13 апр 2023
- In this Tutorial, I will show you how get 5 or even 8 LED outputs on a DIG QUAD. This is part 2 of a 2 part series. In this series, I will show you the setup/configuration of ESPixelStick firmware on the DIG-QUAD with 5 or 8 LED outputs and how to setup/control in xLights.
The DIG-QUAD will drive 5 LED outputs with the standard QuinLED-ESP32 module. If you upgrade to the QuinLED-ESP32-AE+ module which provides 3 addition LED outputs for a total of 8 LED outputs.
NOTE: LED Output 5 - Green Terminal (Q1R) is NOT buffered. It will not drive pixels as far as all the other LED outputs. Either make sure the pixels are close in distance or use a F-Amp.

Awesome video explaining everything in detail quite well! So awesome you where able to resolve some of the issues together with Martin, he's doing excellent work! And as always very appreciative you enjoy the hardware so much! :D
Glad it was helpful!
very good video, do you have a video tutorial on how to flash a wt32-eth0 with espixelstick? I have tried to flash the board but I have not succeeded, I would appreciate it since I am new to this Christmas lights thing. Sorry for my bad translation from Spanish to English :D
Sorry, I do not have a video specifically for that hardware however, it should be exactly the same as flashing a ESPixelStick. Can you tell me what failed when you try to flash your hardware?
Great video explaining everything Tony.
What is the limitation of channels/pixels with these 8 outputs?
I'm not sure what the limitation of the channels/pixel with 8 outputs. I ran up to 1000 pixels total - 1-6 outputs with 100 pixels each and 7-8 with 200 pixels each without any issues. Let me talk to the developer and see if there is a limitation.
